Chapter 55: The Gods in the Wine Jar (3)

From the day he told me he was sorry, I felt that this person was not bad in nature. There shouldn't be many people who live in this environment and still maintain good manners.

I looked at Qin Sifeng who was sitting in front of me again. He should be younger than Uncle Qin, but judging by his gray sideburns and wrinkles on his face, he looks even older. It shouldn't have been much time to groom himself, and his hair looks relatively long, which shows the Qin family's unique long curly hair. From this point of view, I think Qin Chuyi is more like his uncle.

"Uncle, you left this thing at my house yesterday, and seeing that you haven't come to pick it up, we specially sent it to you." As soon as Qin Chu saw that he didn't speak, he repeated it again.

Compared with Qin Chuyi's father, Qin Sifeng's personality is more indecisive. He was visibly nervous, his forehead became moist, his Adam's apple trembled slightly, and it took a long time for the words to come out of his throat.

"This ...... This, please take it back......" Qin Sifeng said suddenly, as if he had confided a big secret in his chest, and he couldn't stop panting.

"But uncle, it's your thing." Qin Chuyi was puzzled.

"This ...... I stole it from my dad...... And...... This thing is ominous......" he said in a slurred sentence, but his eyes kept glancing to the next room.

"Then we won't be able to bring it back." Qin Chuyi immediately said, "Since it's ominous, how can it be placed in my house?" ”

"I'm sorry......" Qin Sifeng suddenly stood up and bowed to us. I was so scared that I almost thought he was going to kneel.

"What are you doing," I said immediately, "since this is not a good thing, why did you steal it from Grandpa Qin in the first place, and why didn't you throw it away and put it in the first year of junior high school instead?" ”

Qin Sifeng was a little overwhelmed by my question, so he took a tissue and wiped the sweat on his forehead desperately. This is probably a secret that has been buried in his heart for a long time, but he can't open it as if he is afraid of something.

"Don't you have anyone else in the house?" I asked suddenly.

When I asked him this, his eyes suddenly widened like an electric shock, and he reflexively said, "No! I'm the only one in my house, ......" Then, his eyes fell back on the wine jar, and he said helplessly: "This thing can't be discarded casually." There seems to be some secret in this. ”

"In the wine jar, of course, there is wine, what else can there be." As if to testify to what he said, Qin Chuyi shook the sound of the altar, and there was a crisp sound of liquid and solid colliding immediately.

"No...... It's not like that......" Qin Sifeng finally gave up the last struggle and revealed the secret he knew.

Many years ago, Qin Sifeng had just found a job in a steel mill. Since he is the second son, he feels that he will definitely suffer a loss when he inherits the family property in the future, so he must rely on his own efforts to make money. But the life of the steel mill early and late and the disproportionate income made him lose confidence in making a lot of money, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful of God's unfairness when he saw his brother start a family and start a business, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful of God's unfairness.

Coincidentally, at this time, he went home early one day, and happened to overhear the conversation between his father, Qin Sanyou, and the visitors. Knowing that his father was proficient in the art of yin and yang, he eavesdropped on him and his guests outside the door. The person who came was a man who looked like a policeman, and he was carrying this wine jar with him at the time. The police said that they were not easy to deal with this wine jar, and they felt that it was more appropriate to hand it over to Qin Sanyou, so they sent it over.

Inadvertently, Qin Sifeng heard the policeman casually say that the owner of this jar was very rich during his lifetime, and regarded this jar as a cornucopia or something, and immediately came up with the idea of stealing the jar, not to mention that at that time, he developed a problem of alcoholism in the steel mill, no matter whether he gathered treasures or not, it was good to drink good wine.

That night, he unknowingly took the jar away and hid it in his factory. Qin Sanyou didn't know where he got the news, and knew that he had stolen it, so he immediately became angry and reprimanded him for being unfilial and ruining his family. However, the strange thing is that Qin Sanyou did not ask him to hand over the altar, but expelled him from the house.

With this jar and its legend of treasures, Qin Sifeng resolutely left his hometown and began to work hard. It didn't take long for it to really break out of the stock market. But not long after the good days, he suddenly fell into the middle of the road and fell into the current situation. When he learned of his father's death, he had no choice but to cheekily go back to fight for the family property, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence, the will happened to be missing.

After saying this, his voice became a little hoarse. I got up to pour him water, but he waved his hand and said no.

"I'd better finish the story. As soon as I got this jar, I felt amazing, and many new ideas would arise in my mind, how to start a business and how to do business, and they all popped up at once. I worship it as a god at home, and I don't let people touch it. But later, this consciousness suddenly disappeared, and his career slipped. Then I thought, in that case, I will drink the wine from this jar, and I will live happily, but who knows, when I pick it up again, I suddenly feel that it has become heavier.

"I remember vividly that when I first stole it, it was definitely only a small half-jar of wine, and I'm sure no one has touched it in all these years. I suddenly became a little scared, thinking that the deterioration of the situation was caused by this jar, so I wanted to send the jar back to my father. I guess I forgot about the quarrel with your father yesterday, so please take good care of this jar, it may live in it...... What kind of gods live......" After Qin Sifeng finished speaking, the electronic clock hanging on the wall began to tell the time, and it was already eleven o'clock.

Qin Chu and I looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Anyway, we definitely don't want to take this jar home, and we feel inappropriate to throw it away, and we don't know how to do it for a while.

"Or do you want to give it back to the policeman in the first place? He should know who the owner of the jar is. Regardless of whether the owner is alive or not, it is better to return it to his descendants. I said.

"This is good! This is good! Qin Sifeng immediately agreed, and Qin Chuyi also nodded.

"But we don't have any information about the policeman." Qin Chuyi was a little troubled. At this time, Qin Sifeng suddenly stood up and said that he was going out to withdraw money. He probably meant let's go. We also think it's too strange to stay at his house all the time, let's go.

The weight of the jar is still very heavy, I saw Qin Chuyi smile bitterly and put it in his schoolbag again, and smiled at him helplessly.

Out of the door of Qin Sifeng's house, we don't know where to go next. At this time, I suddenly thought of a person who said that if I needed help, he would definitely show up. Because my mobile wallet was gone, I asked Qin Chuyi for a phone and dialed Lu Yao's number.

When he learned that we needed to contact the officer, he said yes. It didn't take long for Qin Chuyi to call a strange call on his mobile phone, which was the sheriff of the local jurisdiction.

He invited us to the police station for tea, which made me feel like I had done something wrong, and I followed Qin Chuyi to the local police station with trepidation. The police officers were friendly and led us to the sheriff's office.

The smoky office irritated my nasal mucosa and caused me to sneeze several times. When the sheriff saw us, his smiling face showed a puff of smoke and beckoned us to sit down.

"Who are the two of you, Xiao Lu's friends?" The sheriff asked us with a smile as he poured us tea.

The sheriff looked to be in his fifties, and he had a glaring scar on his weather-beaten face. If it weren't for the police uniform, I would have recognized the man in front of me as a robber. However, I still admire Lu Yao's strength, and it didn't take long for him to get through the relationship with the police in this city, which has to make me admire.

"Yes, we want to know a little bit about a wine jar from decades ago." Qin Chuyi said, took down the schoolbag he was carrying on his back, and took out the mysterious wine jar from it.

"This jar ......" As soon as it was taken out, the sheriff's eyes were staring at it, frowning as if thinking about something, "Where did you get it from?" ”

"Oh, that's right. Many years ago, a police officer came to my grandfather with this jar, and now that my grandfather has passed away, he wants to see where the owner of the jar is, so that he can return it. ”

"You wait...... Xiao Zhang! You come in! The sheriff shouted outside the office with a look of sudden realization, and a young policeman who looked like he had not been on the job for long heard the sound and nodded his head to say hello to the sheriff.

"Look, is this thing familiar?" The sheriff asked, pointing to the jar on the table.

"Isn't this the jar in the Sun family's murder case?" Xiao Zhang looked at the jar and said thoughtfully, "Ah, that's right, it's this jar, my dad was in charge of this case back then." ”

I looked at Qin Chuyi with some surprise, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

"The murder of the Sun family? Officer Zhang, can you tell us more about it? ”

Xiao Zhang looked at the sheriff, and after getting the instruction, he opened the chatterbox.

"That's right. The murder case of the Sun family was quite a sensational case at that time, but due to the great social impact, the news was blocked. The first thing that was discovered that year was a headless female corpse, which was salvaged in the moat. After DNA comparison, it was determined that it was Mrs. Sun's. This Mrs. Sun's husband, that is, Mr. Sun, was a famous big boss at that time, who made a fortune by speculating in stocks, and he was the first to be found after the murder. But before the warrant was issued, Mr. Sun committed suicide and set fire to his house.

"After visiting the neighbors, we learned that this Mrs. Sun seemed to have found a lover and angered her husband, so her husband killed her in a fit of rage. However, after investigation, no so-called lovers were found. There is no way, this kind of self-produced and self-sold case was quickly disposed of. The house was destroyed, and the prosecutors only found this jar. Some people say that this jar was not destroyed in that fire, there must be some special reason, and some people say that the reason why Mr. Sun became a big boss is also because of this wine jar. In addition, the head of the police station at that time was afraid of what kind of basket would come out, so he sent this jar to some master to deal with. Xiao Zhang finished speaking in one breath and took a big sip of water.

"Then this Mr. Sun, does he have any descendants or relatives?" I asked.

"Well, if there is, can this jar still stay here? Relatives are afraid of getting involved in this case, and of course no one wants to take an altar home. ”

I think so, this kind of thing must be able to be cleared as much as possible. It seems that this search has also been fruitless.

After thanking the sheriff, we prepared to leave the police station. As soon as the front foot stepped out, Xiao Zhang in the back suddenly stopped us.

"Hey, by the way, the head of the female corpse has never been found, and it is still a mystery now. If you have any new news, remember to tell me. ”
